Board. An accessory board can be identified by the offset of the bracket and the
shape of the edge connector:

PCI Board- Left-Side Offset

The I/O Board

The I/O board contains:

The Remote Management connector, linking the I/O board to the external
connector on the rear panel.

The I/0 Memory slot, which contains cache memory used by the Intel
i960RD I/O processor.

The SE SCSI connector, which services any single-ended SCSI device
installed in the internal (non-hot-swap) trays.

The PCI Board Slots, which are eight connectors that accept PCI boards.
